It's alright, Leon's garbage collector brother, his brother's wife, Elinore, and his curmudgeonly father Andrew will be moving into Leon's little Baltimore apartment for the remainder of the season, while Leon will rediscover his passion for music and quit NCIS to play trumpet in small clubs.

DownDaRiver:HotWingAgenda: DownDaRiver: And why is that godawful NCIS Los Angles still on the air? And why isn't it set in San Diego, where there is actually a real Naval base?

I didn't realize the naval background of Los Angeles and Long Beach was such a well-kept secret. You never even suspected there was a reason why there's an entire class of submarine designated as "Los Angeles"?

I am aware LB and LAs history. But it doesn't compare to SD in past and present naval presense. Beside Pendelton is nearer to SD. Seems to me SD would have been a better setting. But then again we are talking about a really, really crappy show. So its not worth getting into.

I happen to enjoy both NCIS shows, so number 1... BECAUSE FARK YOU THAT'S WHY!

Number 2... The show is filmed in LA, so easier

Number 3... A setting in LA would seem to lend itself to more stories. So that makes sense to me.

And really why the hate? It's a tongue in cheek cop show, really both of them are.

/Besides by ranting such as you have, you're just asking to get obliterated by the goddamn BATMAN Gibbs

Pfffff, it is Ziva and McGee all the way. Any flirting between DiNozzo and Ziva is just a little foreplay jealousy game that Ziva plays before McGee takes her back to his place and bangs her like a beast.

FirstNationalBastard: violentsalvation: I'm tired of all the family member / childhood episodes this season. DiNozzo's dad at Christmas, Ziva's dad episodes, Leon's you know what. Abby's stupid childhood story. It's alright, Leon's garbage collector brother, his brother's wife, Elinore, and his curmudgeonly father Andrew will be moving into Leon's little Baltimore apartment for the remainder of the season, while Leon will rediscover his passion for music and quit NCIS to play trumpet in small clubs.

Loved that show.

God Bless the child that's got his own.

That's one of those shows I don't know why it hasn't made it to DVD yet, but figure it'll get a Warner Archives release eventually.

Why do you need it on DVD? Just change your channel to USA and I am sure it will be on.

I freely admit this show to be a guilty pleasure. It's not "great" television, but the cast has good energy, the eye candy is appealing and while I suspect Gibbs and I would not get along, I enjoy watching his surly, coffee swilling, bourbon slamming, boat building antics.
